Hello everyone,
This may not be an answer, however I found it to be the
problem for me. Since I did the update on my mini, the mac had chose to
make my magic Jack the primary output device. I had to get my daughter to
switch it to the digital out which is what I use. Then all the other users
were the same way. Last night I just unplugged the jack and restarted and
re plugged the jack in and now everything is happy again. I have no clue
why this switched, I do know that it has been a frustrating weekend though.
Later,

Subject: Re: voiceover randomly freezing
Hi Anne,
I've never been able to get your method to work. Some people said hitting
Command-F5 once, then Command-Tab, then Command-F5 five times within thirty
seconds works, too.
However, since none of this works for me, I've found it safer in my case to
hit Command-Space for Spotlight, type Terminal, hit enter and type killall
-9 VoiceOver to ensure VoiceOver restarts.
That's another way to do it, and it works if all else does not. I have
experienced that sometimes, I am also unable to use keyboard shortcuts but
that has only happened once.
Regards,
Nic

Hello Eric,
This is a very common problem at the moment. You just press Cmd-F5 four
times and VoiceOver starts speaking again.
There is no crash log because VoiceOver isn't crashing, it's just going
silent.
Cheers,
Anne

ok, ever since I tried, and failed to update to 10.6.5, my machine has been
displaying some weird problems.
the top most one is that voiceover will freeze at random in the middle of
reading a web page, writing an e-mail, or something else requiring its
output.
I have done the repair permissions bit and culled unused programs and their
various spawnage. so what gives? VO will not respond to its CMD+F5 command
to quit/restart. I actually have to get someone in here and tell me the
process ID of the app so I can kill it directly.
the malfunction doesn't seem to be making it into the logs either. I am
really at my whits end here.
HELP!
